Baby steps to humanity's first Dyson Sphere ;)

Graphene oxide sheets may be the ideal candidate for solar harvesting. Full radiation spectrum absorbance. High conductivity. Thermoelectric power generation that increases at very high (3000K+) temperatures. Lightweight. Inexpensive. 3D-printable. With cloth-like flexibility.

Might be time to fund a zero-gravity graphene factory in low Earth orbit.
